 It's been a while since my last class with Raimon and I must say it's been a pleasure to have one again. We had a relaxed chat together and worked on some fixed expressions in Catalan. Extremely satisfied as usual.

 Nice chat on continuous learning, the importance of staying mentally active when ageing and crosslinguistic influence, combined with some doubts on lexis extracted from a historical reading. Loved it!

 Another positive lesson. We discussed some grammar doubts, checked some new vocab and discussed the content of an article I had to read for homework.

 Useful consolidation class on pronouns. I believe I'm starting to get the hang of it.

 We started with a bit of conversation on article Raimon sent me last week and went on to deal with a daunting grammar point: pronouns. Doing some class practice helped me understand them better. Good session.

About me - English

Originally I am from Barcelona, Spain. I have profound educational background: masters degree in teaching Spanish as a foreign language (University of Barcelona). As well as a 5-year experience as Spanish and English teacher in different countries.

At the moment I'm working as an English teacher at Shantou Polytechnic University, in China.

Starting September 2015 I was working as a Spanish teacher in CREF-R, Moscow, Russia (2015-2016). I taught conversation and general Spanish to kids, teenagers and adults of different levels, individually and in groups.

I was teaching English and Spanish in China to kids and adults. In groups up to 40 people, small groups and individually. I spent more then two years in Beijing and Xiamen (2012-2014). It was a significant experience for me because I was working with people whose culture and lifestyle are very different from mine.

In 2011 I was teaching Spanish in Elton school in Vienna, Austria.

Before that (2009-2010) I was doing a European Voluntary Service in Kaunas, Lithuania, teaching English and Spanish. I value this experience very high. Even though it was just 9-month period, it was then, when I have realized that teaching is my type of thing and this is what I would like to do for living.

Besides, I have a degree in Journalism, that is why I'm really good with languages. Moreover, I am friendly and opened minded person. I am patient and understanding with my students, being strict where it is needed. I build the classes the way that they are not only informative but also entertaining. I make sure my students leave the class in a good mood, feeling they have learned something new and they would like to come back to my classroom.
